  Thanks a lot. Requesting fullscreen worked an absolute charm.

  Oh yeah for what its worth the plan, or the vision, is to have casino games developed on terminals that are all connected to a master server on the local network. The whole game will be touch based, meaning no one should be able to press alt + f4 or leave fullscreen.

  construct seems to be the perfect IDE suitable for such a game.

  You would need to use node-webkit full screen for a start. You would also need software running to capture keyboard input such as control alt del or alt F4 on the pc. Also you may need to disable other keys such as the Windows key.

  Thanks for your reply.. I noticed node webkit required a license, so I bought construct 2 personal and tried to play around with the node webkit. I can't find the 'full screen' option, though. Is the node webkit restricted to a maximized window?

  I'm not sure about the color.. but what are the colors a part of? The background? A sprite? You could always set up an event for checking what object the mouse is currently highlighting every frame I suppose.

  Hey. I am using the trusty css button generator from this site that I am not allowed to link here. However it seems like I can only add 1 css action at a time, for customising the button with css styles. How do I copy the entire code block for css into the button in one go?

  I suggest a random numbered variable (1-4). Condition a-b-c-d respectively would act out depending on what the variable was (a=1, b=2, etc.)

  No clue how you do that in construct 2, though.

  Hey guys. Ambitious newtimer here.

  I am looking into setting up a game created with construct 2 on multiple computers, acting like a terminal that people can interact with. But I don't want the user to be able to just exit fullscreen and close the game through the browser.

  How can I setup a computer, that initially boots straight into a fullscreen game upon powerup, without any user interaction at all, and then stay there for a whole day? Are there any alternatives to running a chrome/firefox webbrowser?
